Abstract:
Abstract Reflection of internal waves from sloping topography is simple to predict for uniform stratification and linear slope gradients. However, depth-varying stratification presents the complication that regions of the slope may be subcritical and other regions supercritical. Here, a numerical model is used to simulate a mode-1, M2 internal tide approaching a shelf slope with both uniform and depth-varying stratifications. The fractions of incident internal wave energy reflected back offshore and transmitted onto the shelf are diagnosed by calculating the energy flux at the base of slope (w

Abstract:
AbstractIn this paper, the k–ε renormalization group (RNG) turbulence model is used to simulate the flow and dispersion of pollutants emitted from a source at the top of a cubic building under neutral and stable atmospheric stratifications, the results of which were compared with corresponding wind tunnel experiment results. When atmosphere stratification is stable, the separation zones on the sides and at the top of a building are relatively smaller than those under neutral conditions, and the effect of the building in the horizontal direction is stronger than that in the vertical direction.

Abstract:
Energy storage is essential for solar energy utilization, and thermocline storage tanks are commonly used. To improve temperature stratification and storage efficiency, we investigated the effect of different water distributor configurations on tank stratification. We numerically analyzed the heat storage processes in hot water tanks with three water distribution configurations: star, antenna, and octagonal. Temperature stratification was evaluated based on thermocline thickness and storage efficiency. Thermal storage efficiency improves by 0.45% when the outlet direction of the water distribu

Abstract:
In an effort to better understand dormancy in Quercusrubra, adenylate energy charge was measured during stratification and germination. Adenylate energy charge has been suggested as a useful index of metabolic activity and seed vigor. Adenylate nucleotides were measured using the luciferin–luciferase assay. Energy charge was compared with germinability at 28 days. Energy charge increased during the first 2 weeks of stratification when germination was low. Thereafter, energy charge decreased before increasing at 8 weeks of stratification. This second rise in energy charge coincided with increas

In human societies, we observe a wide range of types of stratification, i.e., in terms of financial class, political power, level of education, sanctity, and military force. In financial, political, and social sciences, stratification is one of the most important issues and tools as the Lorenz Curve and the Gini Coefficient have been developed to describe some of its aspects. Stratification is greatly dependent on the access of people to wealth. By “wealth”, we mean the quantified prosperity which increases the life expectancy of people.

Abstract:
The impact of fortnightly stratification variability induced by tide–topography interaction on the generation of baroclinic tides in the Luzon Strait is numerically investigated using the MIT general circulation model. The simulation shows that advection of buoyancy by baroclinic flows results in daily oscillations and a fortnightly variability in the stratification at the main generation site of internal tides. As the stratification for the whole Luzon Strait is periodically redistributed by these flows, the energy analysis indicates that the fortnightly stratification variability can signifi

Rayleigh-Taylor instability has been an area of active research in fluid dynamics for the last twenty years, but relatively little attention has been paid to the dynamics of problems where Rayleigh-Taylor instability plays a role, but is only one component of a more complex system. Here, Rayleigh-Taylor instability between miscible fluids is examined in situations where it is confined by various means: by geometric restriction, by penetration into a stable linear stratification, and by impingement on a stable density interface.

Variations in shelf geometry mean that a coastal-trapped wave (CTW) mode can propagate within some finite length of shelf but be evanescent outside these regions. These disturbances will be denoted here as localised coastal-trapped waves (ℓCTWs). The subsequent motions produced by such localised variations in shelf geometry, i.e. wave propagation, wave trapping and eddy generation, are discussed in both the coastal-trapped wave (baroclinic) and continental shelf wave (barotropic) limits. Firstly, localised continental shelf waves (ℓCSWs) trapped by local variations in coastline curvature, shel

Electric hot water tanks play a pivotal role as demand response assets within the UK's energy system by storing heat when energy is inexpensive and delivering domestic hot water when it is required. This role will become increasingly important if non-dispatchable renewable energy sources are to play a bigger part in the energy mix. Historically, the design standards relating to hot water tanks have focused primarily on minimising heat losses. However, in addition to preserving energy, a hot water tank should preserve the availability of heat above a useful temperature for as long as possible t

Wind energy is rapidly growing around the world as non-renewable energy sources are being phased out. To maximize the energy production, it is crucial to construct new wind turbines at locations where the average wind speed is high. An accurate wind assessment of a new potential site is thus essential in the development of new wind farms. Linearized codes (codes based on simplified models) such as Orfeus and WAsP have seen frequent use in the wind industry as a tool for wind resource assessment since they offer reasonable accuracy at a relatively low computational cost.
